����ӰƬ

For the past few years, , a UAF alumna-owned women’s clothing boutique, has helped UAF School of Management (SOM) ����ӰƬ with their professional wear as a way to prepare them for life outside the classroom and in the workplace.

Recently, the event was rebranded as the “Professionally Polished” program and it now caters to all ����ӰƬ. While the generous donations from In My Element are greatly appreciated, their clothing is geared towards the female audience. For the second year in a row, thanks to a donation from , SOM was once again able to collaborate with Sarah Smith, owner of , for this program. Frank’s staff provided guidance by teaching ����ӰƬ what to look for when buying a suit. For a few of the ����ӰƬ, this was their very first suit. Frank’s also offered a special discount and 12 SOM ����ӰƬ participated in the program.

The Professionally Polished program lays important groundwork for ����ӰƬ who are migrating from student life toward professional life as they graduate from the university and find jobs. Giving ����ӰƬ a boost in their wardrobes gives them a boost in their confidence, as well. We wish all our ����ӰƬ the best with their professional style in the future.

Thank you to Spirit of ����ӰƬ FCU and Frank’s Menswear for supporting School of Management ����ӰƬ.
